I prefer to cook in my own kitchen at my own pace. Besides, they don’t seem to focus much on healthy foods and meals so I prefer to share my recipes on the internet.

I learned how to make some Polish recipes like cabbage rolls but my favorite was desserts.

You might be surprised. I don’t like fancy restaurants with menu items I can’t pronounce but prefer small, family- run hole in the wall places that serve healthy meals. I like a good burger, Chinese food that’s not batter- fried, and sometimes, I have to go out for Mexican! I’m working on a couple of Mexican recipes. Are you a vegetarian or vegan? ![]() ![]() No. I’m sure it’s good for you but I enjoy food too much. I love sweets and have tried baking without sugar but never liked the result.

I love sweets and eat dessert every day but only when I make them myself because I bake mostly without butter and as little sugar as I can. If I have to choose (and I don’t want to!) it would have to be my chocolate- almond clusters. Everyone asks for the recipe! I love comfort foods. And my custard pudding. Why do you use canola oil when they say it’s bad for you? With a family history of high cholesterol, my biggest concern is saturated fat and canola oil, like olive oil, is recommended as being heart- healthy. Olive oil is the best but when my recipe calls for a flavorless oil, I use canola or extra light olive oil. Your body needs some fat, as long as it’s healthy fat, especially monounsaturated fats like olive oil, avocados, and nuts so I try to use them in my recipes. Although milk products contain saturated fats, I prefer low- fat products for taste reasons and also because most fat- free products have a lot of unpronounceable ingredients. Most of my healthy dinner recipes contain a little healthy fat. Do you have a cooking philosophy? I guess I do. It is to realize that eating healthy foods and meals can have a huge impact on how you look and how you feel. And I find it very hard to eat healthy meals at restaurants so knowing how to cook is an important life skill. I would choose the most simple recipes that are homemade, like rice & beans, over most restaurant meals. Cooking your own food is not only personally rewarding, but you have the power to control exactly what’s in your food. You might order a restaurant item that seems healthy but you really have no idea how much butter or saturated fat or salt is in it. That’s why it’s important to know how to cook. Do you ever eat fast food? No. I care too much about my health to eat fast food. I believe that many diseases, like heart disease and diabetes, are preventable by eating healthy foods and meals and not fast food and junk food, and the best way to get those healthy foods and meals is to cook them yourself. Where do you get these recipes? I don’t get them anywhere. These are all the things I cook for myself at home. I am not a recipe developer and I don’t do this to make money or sell anything. I’m just sharing all of my own home cooking with whoever wants it. Do you really take all your own food photos? Believe it or not, it often takes longer to take the pictures than to cook the recipes. I’m not a professional photographer so my pictures are done by trial and error. The reason I take the photos is for full disclosure. I want people to see exactly how their recipes will turn out if they follow my directions. Any last words of advice for struggling cooks? Yes. If I can do it, anyone can cook delicious, healthy meals – it’s just a matter of how much practice you need. It took me years to become the cook I am today and the time I spent was the best investment I could have made in my health. I believe in the power of good nutrition and I just want to share my healthy recipes with the world.– Jenny Jones.
